Currently the US tax payers generate roughly $2,170,000,000,000. (That is Trillion) Our Federal budget is approx $3,820,000,000,000. Our New Debt is approx $1,650,000,000,000. Our National Debt is $16,600,000,000,000. Total Budget cuts from sequester is $44,000,000,000.

Now if you align this as a simple household budget: Annual Family Income: $21,700 Money spent annually by the family: $38,200. New Credit Card Debt: $16,500 Outstanding Debt on the Credit Card: $166,000.00 Total budget cuts by family sequester: $440.00

Our national debt is now $16.6 trillion according to www.usdebtclock.org. Even if congress cut spending to balance the budget and saved one million dollars per day to pay down the debt, it would take 2,740 years to pay off one trillion dollars and 45,484 years to pay off the entire national debt. This does not include the daily accrual of interest on the debt or the $122 trillion of unfunded liabilities due to Social Security or Medicare.

Each year, the Federal Government admits to wasting $125 billion through fraud or unaccountable money. How can our government waste $125 billion per year, while Obama states it will be a “catastrophe” if we cut $44 billion? He has threatened to shut down essential services and furlough workers. Beyond that, he has used the opportunity to scare the public by releasing 5,000 illegal aliens, threatened general safety, and inconvenienced travel through airport screenings in his attempt to trouble the American people and blame those that want responsible spending in his attempt to continue wasteful and unsustainable government spending.

There are billions of dollars of recent waste that should have been cut including:

This is just a small sample of the fraud and abuse of our tax dollars our government has been wasting. The GOA (Government Accountability Office) audited and classified nearly half of all purchases on government credit cards as improper, fraudulent, or embezzled. Examples included gambling, mortgage payments, liquor, lingerie, iPods, jewelry, and luxury vacations, including a $13,500 dinner bill.

Obama may be attempting to scare the America that the Republicans are going to cause people to suffer; but it is his lies and this fraudulent and deceptive government that is destroying America.

The framers of the U.S. Constitution feared an all powerful government. They wrote “limited government” and “Checks and Balances” to limit the power of the government over the people. Over the years, our government has become larger, gained more authority over the people, and has become most corrupt.

If the government were a business, it would be in bankruptcy and those running it would be in jail for fraud and deception.
